Well MRF Pace foundation has produced some world class spinners like Venkatesh Prasad who bowled 2 slower leg cutters in one over. The best spinner in India was Manoj Prabakar,he should be the head of spin academy..

If only you had ANY idea what sort of a man Venketesh Prasad is then you will be regretting you were so disrespectful to someone his stature. Shameful.

yeah when sanath jayasuryia went after him, he bowled one over in spin. I think that was his last match ever

But for that can we call him a Spinner? I know Venkatapathy Raju are Rajesh Chauhan are spinners... but first time Im seeing somebody calling Manoj Prabhakar a spinner...!

Very true guyz I completely agree...Prasad was a fast spinner. Now harm in that though as long as you are consistent in taking wickets...but dear Prasad was far from that. But I guess the current pace attack is the best India has ever had (except Kapil who was a different class altogether)...Just wish India can produce a real fast bowler like Lee or Shoaib Akhtar. Actually we can now give him the job to produce a fast bowler now that hes gonna be living in India after the pakis have kicked him out for 5 yrs. Shoaib should find a nice girl and settle down in india with Sallus help.

Shoaib can only teach Arrogance, Indiscipline and throwing at 155 KMPH. He should be kept far away from all our Bowlers.He is right person with Sharukh
